About this property

Log Cabin Getaway on Big Brasstown Creek

Currently known as "Log Cabin Getaway on Big Brasstown Creek", we invite you to our lovely abode and strive to offer you a WELCOME MAT RECEPTION previously offered by the former owners.

Come to the North Western Carolina mountains and enjoy our log cabin located on 2.57 acres along Big Brasstown Creek. Wake up or fall asleep to rushing water heard outside the bedroom windows. Relax on one of two covered porches with your loved ones while listening to the sounds of the creek with approximately 700 feet of frontage. Explore the surrounding area of Murphy, Brasstown and Hayesville, all within close reach by car or bicycle.

Big Brasstown Creek runs into the Hiawassee River within 2 miles of the cabin. There is a parking area off new Highway 64 where bank fishing or tubing is possible or enjoy fishing & tubing right outside the cabin. Within 30 minutes of the cabin are horseback riding, ziplining, or the Blue Ridge train ride venues. In the fall, drink in the beautiful color that can be found throughout the area's many different driving routes. In the springtime, the abundant Mountain Laurel makes for a beautiful addition to the creek foliage.

The cabin is 2.1 miles from the nationally known John C. Campbell Folk School where several guests have taken classes and returned to take more. While not in class, guests enjoy the several walking trails on the school property as well as strolling through the craft shop that holds many interesting items made by local artists and students. If you are looking for entertainment, enjoy the many concerts offered at the school or in the nearby towns as well as the seasonal festivals, farmers' markets, and more.

Eateries abound in Murphy, Hayesville and Hiawassee. Of particular interest are the Chop House in Murphy & Hiawassee and Doyle's Cedar Hill in Murphy. Information on these and other restaurants can be found in the cabin book.

If you prefer to "dine in", you can prepare your meal in the full kitchen, use the outdoor grill or build a fire in one of two fire pits located on the property and enjoy your meal at the dining table, outside on the porch or on the picnic table. After dinner, lounge on the overstuffed couch and "bear" chairs or watch the sunset from the porch rocking chairs. If you're up for some activity, enjoy the combo pool/ping pong table in the game room, play one of the many box games available to you, put together a picture puzzle, watch TV or use your laptop, tablet or iPad.

The cabin will accommodate 3 couples or singles, each with their own bedroom and bath, one on the main floor, one upstairs and one in the basement game room. The loft contains a twin size/twin trundle day bed that offers an open view down to the livingroom and stacked rock fireplace.

The Master Bedroom on the main level and the Guest Bedroom on the upper level both have king size metal framed beds, feather pillows and views of the creek.

The livingroom has a 42" Satellite TV and the game room has a 32" TV for gaming or DVD, DSL, WiFi access. The indoor dining area seats 6 and the outdoor porch dining table seats 4.

Instant quote has correct reservation pricing with fees and taxes. A minimum 3-day reservation is requested as well as a MINIMUM 2-week advance notice in order to prepare the cabin for your arrival and process all payments and paperwork. However, special circumstances will be considered for returning guests.

Pets are welcome and can enjoy a very large, fenced yard. Pet fees will apply.

perfect location and truly lovely

This cabin was lovely and situated on a beautiful stream that made it feel totally private without being too remote. We were warm, comfortable and loved the space. It is also so conveniently located near the Campbell school where we were attending. Gigi was helpful and accommodating. We will defiantly return.

Nice cabin

Leaves, leaves and more leaves everywhere. Couldn’t see the driveway because of all the leaves. Took our motorcycles but couldn’t unload until the driveway was cleared. Contacted the host and she arranged to have someone come and take care of it. Before that someone arrived, me and my friend with brooms in hand started sweeping the leaves off the drive and a hour later it was clear.

My family had an incredible stay here. There was plenty of room for 6 adults, 1 kid, and 2 dogs. The sounds from the river were absolutely amazing. We are already planning another trip next year.

Our Peaceful Place

This was our 6th stay at the cabin. It’s almost like our second home. We love the location as it is convenient to Murphy, Hayesville and other local communities. The best part is sitting on the deck listening and watching the water of Brasstown Creek in the backyard. This trip we saw a mama and baby deer walking through the yard. We just love this cabin! The owner is wonderful and so accommodating. While we are searching for our own piece of paradise in the mountains, we hope to continue to stay at this beautiful cabin in the woods!

Amazing

I can't say enough about this cabin. It is in a great location close to several towns. The cabin is equipped with everything you need. It has plenty of space for a family or several couples. The cabin also has many activities to keep everyone occupied. The cabin is extremely clean. The fence is perfect for fur babies. The river is very peaceful. Did I mention it was clean. I would definitely recommend this cabin.

Wonderful stay.

The cabin was everything that we had hoped for. Well maintained, clean, good location and beautiful river views. The teens(20-17) had a blast with all the board games to play. It kept them engaged. I enjoyed the pool table and walks along the river. The wraparound porch was very quiet and easy to sit and read or watch the water flowing down the river. Hope to come back again soon.

Amazing Vacation in the Mountains!

My family and I stayed in this cabin and we absolutely loved it. From the accommodations, and the scenery there was so many things to choose from. We would 100% rent this cabin again. My family and I come from a very hot and humid city and we were looking for the perfect cold, breezy getaway and this was it. Thank you so much for everything. Much love, The Cabrera Family

Relaxing Riverfront Retreat

Gigi was terrific to work with and the property was charming! Our pups had a terrific time in their wonderfully secure fenced in yard, and we loved that we could enjoy relaxing on the back porch to the sights and sounds of the pristine river. This is an ideal get-away for a "older"family as everyone has their own bathroom! We will be returning to this relaxing, luxurient mountain home and next time we will plan to stay much longer!

Beautiful Log Cabin

Our stay at the cabin was amazing, relaxing and the weather was perfect. The sound of the running river was hypnotizing. I could have stayed there forever. The location was perfect. Not in town but close to 3 different towns with a short ride to each one. Perfect location to relax in.

About the host

Hosted by Gigi Gould

Host profile image
A resident of Atlanta for 40+ years, the mountains of North Carolina have allured me to them for the past 10+ years. I purchased 10 acres in the Fires Creek area of Hayesville and, after selling that property, helped build a house with friends in the same area. After making a decision to renew the search for my own "dream" mountain home, I happened on 83 Beaver Run quite by chance and knew, from the moment I entered the house, that this was where I was meant to be. I fell in love with the creek and the house immediately. Since another of my dreams has been to have a "Bed and Breakfast", I was determined to continue the vacation rental arrangement established by the previous owners. While I plan on spending a considerable amount of time at Beaver Run myself, I do look forward to meeting many of those who have returned to the cabin year after year and to offer them the same hospitality that was shown them by the previous owners. Kudos to them for creating such a welcoming setting for guests.

Why they chose this property

I have looked for a place that was near the John C. Campbell Folk School since I started coming up to North Carolina 10+ years ago. I enjoy taking classes there and have taught a course myself at the school which was alot of fun. I have also wanted to be close to Murphy with its small town feel and interesting buildings and businesses. 83 Beaver Run is the perfect location for both seeking solitude and for seeking involvement. Not to mention the mesmerizing effects of the water and the wonder of seeing ducks floating effortlessly down the creek.

What makes this property unique

The cabin offers easy, level, creek access. Even though I don't fish myself, the setting offers wonderful opportunities for those who do while also offering a refuge for wildlife. The setting of the house provides a much welcomed sense of peace and quiet while being within close proximity to Murphy, Asheville, Hayesville, Hiawassee, Atlanta, etc..
